The idea of the self-made man is inextricably tied up with that of the American dream. It is his image that has lured thousands of immigrants to our shores, all hoping for the chance to turn a handful of beans into a vast fortune. The self-made man is he who comes from unpromising circumstances, who is not born into privilege and wealth, and yet by his own efforts, by pulling himself up by the bootstraps, manages to become a great success in life. Frederick Douglass, a self-made man himself, The Ultimate Christmas Gift
The Ultimate Christmas Gift 2 comments December 23rd, 2008 12:02pm bedad Well, since it’s almost Christmas, and I’ve had a couple of posts about gifts, I thought I’d point out the ultimate geek gift. Now, you can’t buy one yet- they’re not available until after September 2010. And there’s only three of them. And they’re used. But that’s okay, because they’ll be not only a collectors item, but a conversation piece that will top all conversation pieces. A space shuttle. That’s right, a spaceThinking Really, Really Big
Jamie Galbraith, economic superhero: First, we must fix housing. We need, as in the 1930s, a Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to restructure failed mortgages on sustainable terms. The basic objective should be to keep people in their homes by all necessary means, except where borrowers committed willful fraud, so as to stop the spread of blight and decay. Government can use its power over banks to make this happen, as it has with IndyMac, the California bank that is now, as a federally owned comStimulus Is For Suckers
James Galbraith: What began as a housing collapse will not go away soon. Empty houses wreck home values for their neighbors. The ratings agencies are discredited, the investment banks are gone, and high finance is in debt deflation. Foreign investors won’t soon trust the market for US private debt, even for blue chip corporations, so long as they remain saddled with toxic health care costs. Regulation will have to be rebuilt.

The following is a story that was sent to us by a gentleman, Mario Arredondo, who has gone through a process we may all someday have to endure: searching for and finding a nursing home for a loved one. While this process is probably never devoid of pain and sorrow, in Mario’s case, the difficult situation was compounded by the virtual loss of his best friend and wife, Inger, to dementia. Nursing homes, according to our Yucatecan friends, are a new development here in Merida. In earlier times,Vanderboegh: Absolved -- The Squad -- Rubicon

Special to West Virginia Blue from the author. by Dan Heyman So far in 2008, twenty-six coal miners have died on the job, eight of them in West Virginia. That's about the same as recent years with one major exception. And after slow, steady declines in fatalities for decades safety has seemingly stalled, possibly because price increases have lead to dangerous sites like Sago in Upshur County being reopened or expanded. 2006 was that exception.

Will 70 become the new 62? Americans are living longer and retiring younger. Pension fund problems to come mean that trend may reverse quickly. We continue as a nation to retire younger. More workers are making smart investment and retirement decisions and that’s helping say “so long” to the working world at an earlier age. The Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the average “exit” age from the workforce has dropped from 66.9 in 1950-55 (the study is done in 5 year increments) to 62.0 y

The dirty truth. As reported in this week's Off-Limits column, Colorado’s RapidScreen emissions project has scanned hundreds of thousands of metro-area tailpipes at some of the busiest off ramps and roadways since 2003. The goal of the program, which was outsourced to Envirotest Systems Corporation, is to increase the efficiency of emissions testing by rewarding cars – and their owners -- that pass the involuntary test twice within a ten-month span.

Like anything which involves money, employment and greed, drilling rig jobs is subject to scams. A trick used by fake offshore employment web-sites is to post oilfield job vacancies with very high salaries. How is a job seeker to know if a web-site or job is real or fake? One way is to learn what are the typical rig employment salaries. Obviously, a job posted on Shell’s web-site is not a scam. Unfortunately, most jobs posted on oil company web-sites tend to be high level executive positions, |
